Please excuse my stumbling steps with this new gadget: Guillermo del Toro I most certainly ain’t! ;p The music that’s adding some much-needed class to my, um, somewhat [...]

Well, here we are at the end of the Tim blog. For more than two years now this page has been the go-to place for the latest on my writing adventures, but now it’s time to up sticks and move on to Phase Three of My Sinister Masterplan to Conquer the Universe! From now on, […]
